The official list of invitees was released by National Football Scouting on Friday, and eight former Florida Gators have officially been invited to participate in the 2014 NFL Scouting Combine (National Invitational Camp) at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, IN.

The event, which is held for six days from Feb. 19-25, consists of more than 300 players being put through a series of drills, tests and interviews while more than 600 NFL personnel in attendance (including coaching staffs, executives, player personnel and medical staffs) look on and evaluate each of them. It amounts to a major job interview for these athletes to participate in ahead of the start of the 2014 NFL Draft on May 8.

The eight former Gators student-athletes invited to the NFL Combine include:

Solomon Patton should have recieved an invite. He was the most productive player for our offense last year. He’s very fast and explosive and is tough as nails. I think he can succeed in the NFL as a slot WR or KR/PR. Last season he had 44 catches for 556yds and 6tds, and did that without any consistent QB play in an anemic run-based offense (in the SEC.) This kid can play!
